5- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مَرَّارٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
سَأَلْتُهُ عَنِ الَّذِي يَقْذِفُ الْمُحْصَنَاتِ تُقْبَلُ شَهَادَتُهُ بَعْدَ الْحَدِّ إِذَا تَابَ قَالَ نَعَمْ قُلْتُ وَمَا تَوْبَتُهُ قَالَ يَجِيءُ وَيُكْذِبُ نَفْسَهُ عِنْدَ الإمَامِ وَيَقُولُ قَدِ افْتَرَيْتُ عَلَى فُلانَةَ وَيَتُوبُ مِمَّا قَالَ.
